mode)
1. Lift up the vehicle so all four wheels are off the
ground {see section 1)
3.
Start the engine, and let it run until it warms up (the
radiator fan comes on at least twlce).
With the engine at idle, shift into 1st gear and
release the clutch.
Apply the parking brake firmlY
. lf the engine stalls, the 4WD system is normal.
. lf the engine continues running, there is a prob-
lem in 4WD system. Check the differential fluid. lf
the differential fluid is normal, replace the torque

1. Block the front wheels, raise the left rear wheel. and
support it with a safety stand as shown.
Hold the tire and turn it counterclockwise continu-

lf the rotation of the wheel does not gradually
feel heavy while rotating, the 2WD system when
decelerating in a forward gear is normal.
lf the rotation of the wheel gradually feels heavy,
there is a problem in the system. Check the dif-

solvent or carburetor cleaner, and dry with com-
pressed air. Insen the intermediate shaft assembly
into the differential. Hold the intermediate shaft hor-
izontal to prevent damage to the differential oil seal.
